Crisis in Edo Living Faith Church as Oyedepo allegedly assaults member
Nosa Aigbogun, who spoke to journalists in Benin city said, he was the latest to be slapped by Gideon Oyedepo, younger brother to the General Overseer, Bishop David Oyedepo who is the presiding/resident pastor at the church’s Uwasota Branch around Ugbowo – Lagos road.
According to him, ”I want concerned authorities to rescue/save us from him. We have received enough slaps. We are begging his elder brother, Bishop David Oyedepo to save us from the overnight emperor before it’s too late. “He called for unit meeting on Sunday, and I was part of those that attended. He was talking about how he will dissolve the unit, all of a sudden, he just turned to me and started calling me devil, idiot, saying that was how I kept the pin mic, and he couldn’t find it.
It was a legal friend of mine that saw them before me. He just alerted me that I should run that P.A was coming with soldiers. I had to hide myself, but they searched and located me. All they could say was that I should follow them. When I asked where they were from, they bounced on me and rough handled me with the instruments they came with and beat hell out of me. I have reported the case to Okhoro police station, all I want is justice,” he added.
